This program is completely misleading. It makes it appear as if it is free until you have to download your PDF. This is what happened to me. Then even when I signed up for the free trial I found out that my PDF file is too long for the program to download. And so all the work that I just put into it is completely void. AVOID THIS PROGRAM AT ALL COSTS!

It was supposed to be free, but it was charging me $30 every month SECRETLY. DO NOT PURCHASE this. I will say it again. DO NOT PURCHASE this. IT WILL STEAL YOUR MONEY behind your back!

Anyone who are saying that they had "pleasant experience" using this service are hired by Formswift.com.

They advertised a free IRS 1099 form and said all I had to do was answer a few questions and download the form and print. I answered the questions but they then wanted $1.95 for a one time use which I agree to. Then I filled out the 1099 form and printed it. The form says its just a 1099 information form and warned you cannot submit it to the IRS or you will be charged penalties. I looked up the IRS regs and you can only submit a 1099 form to the IRS that you order from the IRS. FormSwift's 1099 information form is worthless so selling it as if it was the real IRS 1099 form is a scam. Worse, I only agreed to pay $1.95 but FormSwift charged my credit card $39.95. I disputed the charge today with my credit card company which gave me a $39.95 credit it says is permanent. Be sure to immediately dispute with your bank or credit card company any unauthorized charges FormSwift puts on your credit or bank card. One of the best things about using a credit card for purchases is the bank or credit card company's guarantee that you are not responsible for fraudulent charges. If another charge from them appears on my card, I'll dispute it again and get my money back, file a complaint with the attorney general of my state, and post a complaint on a dozen or so complaint websites.

Not FREE!
February 1, 2020

Do not give your information such as email to this company. False advertisement! Not free! Another company taking your money and possibly not cancelling your account.

Easy To Use
May 18, 2017

A five star rating. I'd tried a different site and found the results looked unprofessional. Found FormSwift and tried it. It was very easy to use and the results absolutely GREAT.

" send the document for signature again and to make sure that you make sure that the signature line is where the signature should go" Is what the Chat service said to me when the signature came back on the corners of some pages and not in the signature field. I sent out the doc (simple lease agreement) and when I was notified by the person signing (another issue, no email was sent to notify me signature was completed on doc) the signature was not in the "signature field" so the fix to my problem was to send out again and "make sure that the person signautre goes/assigned to the signature field" by me I am supposed to make sure this happens? So what is the purpose of the "send for signature" feature that is not already pre-determined by the feature that should DO THAT VERY THING! Ugh so frustrating, glad I did the trial version and won't have this issue. Go elsewhere, do the trials and save yourself the time and money, so dissapointed I am even wasting my time in writing this review!

Evidently 15 months ago when I needed necessary forms for a passport there was some small print "$29.95 FREE TRIAL" offer monthly charges that started rolling on my account. I called and spoke with a representative 2 months ago but she couldn't explain to me why I was getting charged and instructed me to contact my bank. I'm a super busy contractor and local branches are closed due to covid 19. Billing stopped for one month but then resumed this month. Called in again and got someone who could cancel this USELESS service and wasted draft from my bank account. Conclusion: DECEPTIVE SNEEKY BUSINESS PRACTICES AND INCOMPETENT CUSTOMER SERVICE. Stay away from this comapany!

Not Free
January 26, 2020

Isn't actually free, false advertised. Waste of time setting up your form to have to opt in after account created. Even the "free trial" costs 1.95

Bait and switch. They advertise "free" but you have to pay them $89 to print or save your document. Scammers suck.
